They are very good, but they only know contemporary routines and some sanda kickboxing. I had students who trained under a well-known 'Shaolin Monk' in NY come to me, because they wanted to learn how to fight. The "Monk's" knowledge of actual application was very limited, to say the least.
3-there is no internal and external. Internal was a phrase that Sun Lu=Tang used in an article to describe Hsing-Yi, Ba-Kua, and Tai-Chi-Ch'uan-nie jia-internal schools. Now it is a catch-phrase used by "internal arts" snobs, who are holier than thou. ALL traditional Martial Art is internal. If you say otherwise, you simply don't understand Martial Arts. Period.
4-Hsing-Yi did not come from Shaolin, and NO, it did not come from Wudang either, niether did Ba-Kua or Tai-Chi-Ch'uan.
Wow-someone I can relate to.....

Why does it not surprise me that you have an extensive knowledge of buzzard biology?

Because when family and friends started to call me old buzzard years ago, I had to learn about myself.

Ramsey5150 is on a distinguished road



I studied xingyiquan for about a year and I loved it. It is a really great internal style, I only call it internal because we trained in multiple breathing and chi building exercises. I would reccomend this art to anyone interested in chinese Kung-Fu or martial arts in general, plus if you are interested in animal forms than xingyi is a must.
